“Please, Jason. You have to help him. He wants to be just like you.” The phone call ran through Jason Garciaparra’s head as he flew from Chicago back to Boston to help out his younger cousin who was an aspiring college athlete that desperately was hoping to get his grades up to go to Boston College. The younger cousin had the talent to become a solid tight end wherever he went, but was struggling to match the on field talent for the grades in the classroom so they called the smarter of the Garciaparra siblings in order to help him out. Jason getting back to Boston could not have been better though as the former high school tight end and defensive star was able to prove that success in the classroom is just as important as on the field success. When showing off how to study, Jason made sure to show his younger cousin what opportunities show up with having a higher GPA and began to look through the scouting page made for him back when he was in high school. The amount of offers that were had were awesome, giving the young future star something to look forward to when it came to applying oneself in school. As Jason got ready for the first game of S32, he received a text that the offer from Boston College finally came through.
